Abstract
Female terminal parts (25) comprises a terminal body (28) and a plate spring piece (9). The terminal body (28) is formed with a wire connecting portion (5) and an electric contact portion (3). The electric contact portion (3) is formed with a bottom plate portion (11); a pair of two opposing side plate portions (13, 15); and a pair of two half opposing top plate portions (27, 29). Further, a plate spring piece (9) is formed with a spring body (26) and a pair of lug portions (23) engaged with the lug engagement holes (21) formed in the two side plate portions, respectively when assembled with the terminal body (28). In particular, two opposing cut-off end surfaces (27b, 29b) of the two half top plate portions are chamfered, and a distance (L2) between the two outer ends of the lug portions (23) is determined slightly smaller that another distance (L1) between the two chamfered surfaces (31, 33 ) of the two half top plate portions.
